What else can I help you with?
Which type of bond occurs when strength of the valence shells are approximately the same?
covalent bond
Atoms with many electron shells will let go of their electrons more easily than those with fewer shells.?
true
Why do outer shells of atoms hold more electrons?
The outer shells of atoms can hold more electrons because they have higher energy levels compared to inner shells. These outer shell electrons are farther from the nucleus and experience weaker attraction forces, allowing them to occupy a larger electron capacity.
Do atoms whose outer elecron shells contain eight electrons tend to form ionic bonds in aqueous solutions?
Atoms whose outer electron shells contain eight electrons tend to be stable and do not easily form ionic bonds in aqueous solutions. This is because they have reached the stable configuration known as the octet rule. In most cases, atoms that form ionic bonds have outer electron shells that are not fully filled with eight electrons.
Which bond help with filling electrons with outer shells?
Ionic bonds help fill the outer shells of atoms by transferring electrons from one atom to another. This results in the atoms achieving a stable electron configuration similar to a noble gas.
What happens two electrons when atoms share covalent bond?
They are shared by the valence shells of the atoms involved in the bond.
Do atoms with many electron shells let go of their electrons easier than fewer shells?
More the number of shells in an atom, more away will be the electrons from the nucleus. Hence, weaker will be the attraction between nucleus and outermost electrons. So atom with more shells will let go their electrons easier than atoms with fewer shells.
Does atoms lend and borrow electrons from inner shells?
Atoms typically do not lend or borrow electrons from inner shells when forming chemical bonds. Instead, they primarily interact with their outermost electrons, known as valence electrons, to form bonds through sharing, losing, or gaining electrons. Inner shell electrons are usually more tightly bound to the nucleus and are not involved in chemical reactions. Thus, the behavior of electrons in bonding primarily concerns the outermost shells.
Where are the core electrons located?
Core electrons are located in the inner electron shells of an atom, closest to the nucleus. These electrons are tightly bound to the nucleus and are not typically involved in chemical reactions or bonding with other atoms.
When atoms become ions their outer most shells of electrons become?
they add or loose electrons from the outer most shells
Why do atoms share electrons?
They share electrons when they try and corm covalent or ionic bonds. This is because the atoms want to gain a full outer shell. So when they share electrons they can have full shells.
What subatomic particles are found outside the nucleus of an atom?
Electrons are the subatomic particles found outside the nucleus of an atom. These negatively charged particles occupy the electron shells surrounding the nucleus and are involved in chemical bonding with other atoms.
How the number of electrons in an atoms electron shells is the basis for chemical bonding?
Atoms bond because they "share" their electrons. Every atom wants to have 2 atoms in their first shell, and then 8 in all the other shells. Lets say we have an atom with 3 electrons, and one with 9 electrons, they will esaly bond
electrons involved in bonding between atom are?
Electrons involved in bonding between atoms are valence electrons.
Which type of bond occurs when strength of the valence shells are approximately the same?
covalent bond
Atoms with many electron shells will let go of their electrons more easily than those with fewer shells.?
true
What do shells (energy levels) and valence electrons have to do with atoms combining to make molecules?
Valence electrons form the bonds between atoms in a molecule.
